Ru 4:15

SEV Biblia, Chapter 47:12

Y alimentaba José a su padre y a sus hermanos, y a toda la casa de su padre, de pan, hasta la boca del niño.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 7-12 - With the gravity of old age, the
piety of a true believer, and the authority of a patriarch and a prophet, Jacob besought the Lord to bestow a blessing upon Pharaoh. He acted as a man not ashamed of his religion; and who would express gratitude to the benefactor of himsel and his family. We have here a very uncommon answer given to a very common question. Jacob calls his life a pilgrimage; the sojourning of stranger in a foreign country, or his journey home to his own country He was not at home upon earth; his habitation, his inheritance, his treasures were in heaven. He reckons his life by days; even by day life is soon reckoned, and we are not sure of the continuance of it for a day. Let us therefore number our days. His days were few. Though he had now lived one hundred and thirty years, they seemed but a few days in comparison with the days of eternity, and the eternal state. The were evil; this is true concerning man. He is of few days and full of trouble; since his days are evil, it is well they are few. Jacob's lif had been made up of evil days. Old age came sooner upon him than it ha done upon some of his fathers. As the young man should not be proud of his strength or beauty, so the old man should not be proud of his age and his hoary hairs, though others justly reverence them; for those wh are accounted very old, attain not to the years of the patriarchs. The hoary head is only a crown of glory, when found in the way of righteousness. Such an answer could not fail to impress the heart of Pharaoh, by reminding him that worldly prosperity and happiness coul not last long, and was not enough to satisfy. After a life of vanit and vexation, man goes down into the grave, equally from the throne a the cottage. Nothing can make us happy, but the prospect of a everlasting home in heaven, after our short and weary pilgrimage of earth.
